Newsweeks ratign of 40th in the nation was one of the founding goals. But what that does not talk about is the comaraderie of the staff when times get tough. We gave up our vacation days whenstaff members got cancer, we reached out to students when they had troubling times. This is a humble group of individual who work to improve the climate of the school ( see our climate results improve from below to above bvsd in the past 3 years) . I was repeated brought to tears at graduation, 8th grade promotion the last day activities. . We moved furniture and books, cleaned out lockers(yuck) put up shelves when it would have been so easier so have left at lunch. After 5 years of working here i am so proud of my school with their ground breaking initiatives. Thank you for the parental support and care-

I tend to agree with the comment that the Elementary needs more guidance when it comes to parent involvement, especially for Homework. Infinite Campus might be the answer, since it works very well for Middle & High school (parents can easily check on assignments this way). On the plus side, the school doesn't let kids 'slide thru the cracks' (as it often happens in the regular public schools) for which I'm eternal grateful , but on the same token, one or two missing assignments can drive the grade to an 'F' immediately (they also have good measures to recover). Overall is an excellent school, but the staff might be a bit overwhelmed by the increased number of pupils in the recent years. One more thing: the kids are not the friendliest, there are a lot of abusive slurs which is disturbing to me, since is a school with high standards.

I have been a student at Peak to Peak for 6 years and I have no regrets. It's such a great place to learn and because of the small-school environment, everyone is very nice, and you get to know basically all the teachers and students. Recently, we acquired an amazing new theatre teacher, and our plays are just stunning. The sports are great and I love it.
